A game which can be played on the internet (mini version - 15 levels) or on a computer (full downloaded of CD version) and some iPods. The game is rather addictive, and the object of the game is to protect your house and ultimately your brains from the horde of undead trying to attack from your roof, front yard and back yard using plants. These plants include pea shooters of various forms, wallnuts (a nut that blocks the zombies), water lilies (for planting things on water), sunflowers (to provide sun so you can plant more plants) and mushrooms on night levels. There are also mini games such as Zombotany and Zombie Nimble Zombie Quick, and a Zen Garden where you can grow plant life to sell to Crazy Dave (the crazy neighbour/shopkeeper in the game) for money, which is used throughout the game to buy things for your Zen Garden or useful plant upgrades.

A game made as well as originally distributed by PopCap, Plants vs. Zombies is a Tower Defense game were players unlock and choose specific plants to fight an army of zombies threatening to eat their brains. The first game was published in 2009, and ever since PopCap was bought by EA, more games (a sequel, two shooter spinoffs, and a card game) have been released.

Amongst the roster of plants, they can be classified into several categories - the plants either generate SUN which you use to place more plants; some are environment modifiers. Some apply negative effects to the zombies; some outright damage them.

Released in 2009, Plants vs Zombies defined a genre by choosing not guns, but PLANTS. Since it's release, about 10,000 other apps have been released trying to copy it. They essentially have to get high as fuck on any substance of their choice and using this state of mind come up with some fucked up idea to rip off the game.
